FCV 588 & FCV 295

[Bobby A.]

I am looking to purchase and install either the FCV 588 or FCV 295 with a 1KW CHIRP transducer. What will be the best thru hull with fairing block 1KW transducer with CHIRP for the FCV 588 & FCV 295? Looking to target Red Snapper at a Depth range of around 150 - 180 FA. Location of transducer will be installed dead center of keel approx. 12 inches in front of the engine compartment in a separate transducer only compartment.

Bobby A,
Using a Chirp transducer with the FCV-588 is not recommended. You can use either a B-265 or B-275 with the FCV-295 however. The LF side on the both transducers are the same. The HF side of the B-265 has a narrow beam width where as the B-275 has a wide beam width.
